ALL BRITISH.

The Empire is engaged in the greatest struggle for political and commercial supremacy that has ever confronted it during its long and glorious existence, and it is imperative that every man, woman, and child do their bit towards bringing to a successful conclusion this greatest of all wars.. There aro many other ways of helping in this war besides actually being in the fighting-line. As a matter of fact, only a, comparatively small percentage of tho entire population is actually fighting. The balance of tho people are helping as best they can in all sorts of ways, from knitting socks to making shells. On tho women of the land falls a heavy burden. They give up their husbands, sons, brothers, and sweethearts. They have a vital interest in such a struggle second to none; and while Nature has not fitted them physically to go into the trenches, in sphit they aro there, aiding their men to do their utmost for King and_ country. This is a great commercial war, and tho women, although not actually fighting, can render enormous service to their country in closely examining tho origin of things they buy The rule should be: USE NEW ZEALAND GOODS FIRST; THEN BRITISH. AND AFTER THAT GIVE PREFERENCE TO ALLIES' PRODUCTS.

So there may bo r.o doubt about the nationality of Dr Morse's Indian Root Tills, and the perfect safety and propriety in using them during- these times and under war" conditions, it might be well to state that they are an entirely British product (with the exception of one £2O share, held by a neutral). All the other shares are held by British subjects. Dr Morse's Indian Root Pills are made in New Zealand by New Zealanrlors for the New Zealand people. For TO years these Pills have been made in Wellington, and nowhere in the world, is a. better Pill turned out in general apnea ranee, quality, and finish. During all these years in which the merits of Dr Morse's Indian Root Pills have been presented to the people of Now Zealand, it has always been on the merits of the Pill itself. No anneal has been made that they were a British or New Zealand remedy, and for that reason urged on the attention of the public. Such methods are often used, annealing to the patriotic instincts of the public to sell inferior qoods. It is only now. during tho war, in which the origin of articles in common use play such an important part that it is stated for the guidance of the public that Dr Morse's Indian Root Pills are whollv and entirely British-owned and made, with the exception of the one sfiaro mentioned held by a neutral.
